The step at the front door is the most common barrier in Spanish housing. This prints a way over it.
Acces3D scans an existing entrance, models it automatically, and breaks the required ramp into discrete components optimized for 3D printing — so each ramp adapts parametrically to the doorway it serves, in ecological materials made at km0. Directed by SENSEDI and developed by IAAC with La Máquina by Noumena, funded by Fundación Mutua de Propietarios as part of its building-accessibility program.
A single step at the front door is the most common accessibility barrier in Spanish housing, and custom ramps are normally too slow and expensive to deploy at scale.
A workflow that scans an entrance, models it automatically, and 3D-prints a parametric ramp from renewable, locally made feedstock.
A repeatable, funded accessibility intervention (via Fundación Mutua de Propietarios) that adapts to any doorway it serves.
Scanning an entrance, generating the ramp, and 3D printing it in ecological materials made at km0.
